American A Man.
When we're drunk We're crunk, we're crunk We think what we Normally thunk We sink when we normally Sunk When we're drunk We're crunk, we're crunk Don't obey Rules of the road Head home, old toad Splat pavement, release vibes Sentence to years Steer with queers Aim with binoculars Sinister ears Figure it's time Never you mind We'll eventually rhyme That which you dine Don't forget It's all regret Take advantage Before yet Take it home Alone Beast, Seize! Sniff, Sneeze! Don't queeze Just please Soft tease Ease fees Simple trees Free frees Cold winds Blow fins Towards Marylands Trickle In Calm fore Better store Ancient ore Often sore When we're drunk Never more Hangover Blow chunks

When we're drunk
Man puts on costume Wants to have fun; Man wanders into forest Not for long. Walked to his neighbor's Thought it would be fun; Man appears threatening Gets shot in the lung. Old man just wanted To be more free; Nobody tells him Who he shouldn't be. Not too long ago, He was so much more; He was drunk, again And looking for more. But before he was gone He saw freedom's light; And travelled along Into the night.

Into The Night
Old always existed and you thought that it was new but in reality it's just that you Thought that your feeble brain could do what it couldn't do You're better off tying your shoe you know it's true Don't be surprised if what you hear seems so amazing Because that's the way it's supposed to be And if it wasn't you wouldn't be reading about it at all And your interest would stall these tales are tall You gotta know it's better than you You gotta know it's older than a few You gotta know it's better than you You gotta know it's older than a few I'll see you on the other side and so will she But in the meant time don't forget that 1+1+1+1 is sometimes three Bet you didn't see You gotta know it's better than you You gotta know it's older than a few You gotta know it's better than you You gotta know it's older than a few

Old Always Existed
Duck and cover Heat and thunder Rolling pin Lion's den Blood on lips Or tulips Blow torch Front porch Figure it Ancient Ain't **** No quit Dynamite So tight Ouch that Feels great

What you see Is what you get My pet, my pet See me now See you later Beware, beware What comes of this? It couldn't be It is.  It is. You didn't see me But I'm here Ignore.  Ignore. Really?  How? Easy! You know! Wow.  Amazing. It is. It's here. {}{} {}{}

Mesmerize me With your pelican eyes. Isn't that funny? I thought you might laugh. Oh me?  Not much. Just everything, you know. Lots of stuff going on. Lots of stuff going on.

Mesmerize
They were ghosts In the night When all was right Now they roast An anomaly That they'll never see They saw the light As it were On top of the mountain Now they're down For the count And bothered Before it was cruel To have them come Because they had been here so long Now they're here again And all of them different And one of them gone

Odd Reunion
Ponds anew with animals Fine young cannibals Forest trees blossom open Spies await behind every curtain Display of affectation Serenaded by dancing starlings Capped vertical postings Downed power outages Falsehoods weep tonight With triangular reasoning: Past, Present, Future. Vertigo. THE QUADROCOPTERS ARE COMING!

Spring Quadrocopter
Sits glass as the foggy window Little between he and the outside Around the world he’s traveled Now he’s back again briefly The parties are all searching for The life he lives inside the glass He knows not why he runs away But feeds the beasts he keeps at bay The solitude is deafening beyond The structures where he sits And might one day figure out Pop marks can be left for zits

Pop marks
Dear Sir, or Madam, We turn, and we toil, and for what, a dream? Who said that this is the way that it should be? Who taught you what you know, He? Who is He?  You?  Me? I thought you knew everything. I thought that you did. But what did you know? How to steal. I thought I knew better. I really did. But I didn't. And now here we are. You should not be there. But you are. And I hate you for it. Every day. I can't stand your teeth. Your eyes. Your ugly. I despise you. Why did you **** me? Was I worth it? You took all that I had. And you ******* burned it. I no longer care for you. I want you to die a miserable death. You disowned me, abandoned me. Wasted my talents. Now it is time for my payback. And it might be slowly. But if you vanish, I will find you. Don't think you'll escape. Don't think I will forget. Forgive, in a minute. I have to do something first. What you did was ***** me. You know it. And multiply me. By 150 million.  At least. You should not be forgiven. You should be taken out back. Shot. And forgotten. But the biggest problems are two. You are not one. And you are not you. So you didn't forget. I want to find all of you then. Round you up like cattle. Call Temple Grandin. And make her earn her commission. I can't even eat any more. I can barely live. Once thought impossible. I might be outside. What did I do to deserve this? This miserable life. Did I **** somebody?  Did I shoot them? What did you do? Looking at jobs ads. I see one that catches my eye. Cafeteria worker, ok, maybe? 3 years of experience required. Not a black problem. Not a white problem. Just a black-and-white problem. I am right, you are wrong, yet you live. I pray I'll get mine. Even if it means I have to pray. Because I deserve more than this. Scratch the first item, Shakespeare, and put in bankers. Banks destroyed this country, with their arrogance. They believe more money attracts more brilliance. But does it?  Seems a self-proving system. One to enhance those who make more money, even illegally. I'll be back in a minute. Not really. I have to move. I might not even be able to make that work. I'm not even going to spell-check this poem. **** pentameter, rhyme. You need a message. In stereo sound. Oh, do you not know what this is? Oh, do you? That's like the dumbest thing I know. And so are you. You ****** me and you didn't even enjoy it. And I despise you mainly because you're so dumb. A guilty plea by you, a lie, almost. So redemption by me would look like what? I can't hit you, punish you. For what, in this righteous universe? A calculated mis-step. By a cog in an unforgiving mashing machine? Forgiveness is inevitable. Someday the channel will be lost. But as I said, I have to move. To a place with more frost. And oh how beautiful it will be. When that one day, I look off in to the distance. And see a setting sun, over serenity. And all of my dreams coming true. But I needed that cafeteria position, well no, I mean that I really do. But you wanted 3 years experience, 3 years. I can give you zero with a serious but. A delinquent but, a candid one. Ever, Truly, Yours, The Candidate

Cover Letter (The American Dream)
